<description>&lt;p&gt; One of the values that we have at Uplift Kids is helping families be intentional together, and this can look many, many different ways. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Without *some* intentional time, there can be drifting apart and a lack of meaning. So we wanted to talk about ways to be intentional.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of the sources that we&amp;#39;ve pulled from in this episode is a book called The Intentional Family by a family therapist named William Doherty. Doherty talks about the need to balance rigidity and flexibility.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This approach — an approach that might be called a &amp;quot;wisdom approach&amp;quot; — is something that we explore and hold to consistently at Uplift Kids. It&amp;#39;s a &amp;quot;both-and&amp;quot; approach rather than an &amp;quot;either-or&amp;quot; approach. And so the idea here is that we want to find a way to have a bit of structure and flexibility, meaning *some* time together.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this episode we explore ways to make intentional time together.&lt;/p&gt;
